I have been toying with this for a while now but am wondering if I need to upgrade from PSCS3 to CS5? In reality, I LOVE CS3 and it does everything I need it to do quickly (plenty of RAM, etc.). So for my purposes, purely photo editing/manipulation, CS3 is perfect. But, I've heard from reviews that CS5 does many things better than CS3 and has a lot of other features I do not need or would ever even use.
What are your thoughts on this?

LOL...
Well there are a FEW things in there that I could use! But I am not sure it is enough to justify the expense...
I'll take a look at it...

Do you use puppet warp Wayne? Looks like a great idea, but after doing the tutorial I never tried it again.

Yes couriously enough I do, but not for it's intended purpose, I use it for "tweeking" things where I need more control than transform warp gives.
